I don't know of another. Skypix is a bit like a subset of RIP. So it was quite easy to implement. (In contrast to let's say IGS which I've ~75% - I'll continue that at some point)

Only thing that needed some work were the amiga fonts. It was a thing invented by an Amiga BBS System. It's very basic compared to RIP/IGS but you can do some basic operations (rect/circle/fill/fonts/palettes etc.).

 AK> Always great to see more IcyTerm updates!  Thanks for sharing all this
 AK> work!

Updated the builds btw. first ones had a bug :/. Damn everytime I test the builds from the build server they work :/.

Y needed a little break form icyboard config tool development and skypix was perfect for that. 

If anyone else has a 'funny format' let me know. In the pipeline are IGS/Mode5 (not sure about M5 - but IGS is fun).
